SL Series - application notes General Application Notes vin 2 ft. 14 AWG The SL family of power converters, designed as military grade standalone power converters, can also be used as components in complex power systems. The SL Series utilizes a high efficiency full bridge isolated DC to DC converter which operates at 300 KHz constant frequency. The SL units are supplied in five sided metal case to minimize radiated noise. A number of protection features, as well as electrical and thermal derating of internal components per NAVSO P3641A guidelines and the use of proven topology allow for high reliability throughout an operating range of -550C to +1000C. In applications where even greater reliability is required, the converter can be screened to MILTD-883 upon request. v IN TTL SYNC PAR TRIM Figure 1 The most basic use of the power converter is shown in Figure 1. An input fuse is always recommended to protect both the source and the power supply in the event of failures. Slow-blow fuse is recommended with a current rating approximately 200% of the full load input current to the converter. Having a slow-blow type fuse will allow for the converter s inrush charge at turn-on. The sense pins of the converters must be connected to their corresponding output bus. Inherently, power converters will have some internal energy loss, which is dissipated in the form of heat through an aluminum mounting surface. This surface must be cooled to maintain a temperature below the maximum operating temperature. Wire Gage & Distance to Load If the resistance of the wire, printed circuit board runs or connectors used to connect a converter to system components is too high, excessive voltage drop will result between the converter and system components, degrading overall system performance. Figure 1a For example, if the DC/DC converter in Figure 1a is a 50W unit (5VDC @ 10 Amps) with output load regulation specified at 0.2%; the connection as shown will degrade load regulation by a factor of 10. In this example, the 4 feet of #14 AWG wire used to connect the converter output to the load, has a total line resistance of 10mΩ (ignoring any contact resistance). For a 50W, 5 VDC output converter, the drop across the lead resistance will be 100 mv (10A x 0.010Ω) or 2% of the output. Thus, the converter is selected for 0.2% regulation, but the power system layout achieves only 2.2%. This can be corrected by decreasing the distance between the converter output and load. If that is not possible, using larger diameter wire (see Table 1), or PCB runs that have larger cross sectional area and shorter length will also reduce conductor resistance. The use of the converter s remote sense capability will also work (see Remote Sense for more information on this option). # AWG 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 TTL SYNC PAR Current Resistance (mω/foot) 0.792 0.998 1.261 1.588 2.001 2.524 3.181 4.020 5.054 6.386 8.046 10.13 # AWG 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 TRIM 2 ft. 14 AWG Current Resistance (mω/foot) 12.77 16.20 20.30 25.67 32.37 41.02 51.44 65.37 81.21 103.7 130.9 162.0 Table 1 For additional information, call 310.542.8561 or e-mail: Orders-EP@eaton.com www.eaton.com/powerconversion
General Application Notes - con t NOTE: High IR drops between the converter and load may cause converter parameters, such as output voltage accuracy, trim range, etc., to appear to be out of specification. High IR drops on input lines may cause start up problems (voltage at the input pins below the input range of the converter). Obviously, any connections made to the power distribution bus present a similar problem. Poor connections (such as microcracking around solder joints) can cause serious problems such as arcing. Contact resistance must be minimized. Proper workmanship standards must be followed to insure reliable solder joints for board mount converters. Terminal strips, spade lugs and edge connectors must be free of any corrosion, dust or dirt. If parallel lines or connections are available for routing converter output currents, they should be utilized. Remote On / Off Remote turn ON / OFF (TTL Pin) is an additional feature to the SL Series. This feature is especially useful in portable/mobile applications where battery power conservation is critical. The voltage level at the TTL pin is referenced with respect to the converter s VIN Input. When the TTL pin is pulled to less than 1.0V with respect to the VIN pin. Via either an open collector (see Figure 3) or a mechanical switch with a 0.5mA capability, the converter shuts down. An optocoupler can also be used IF the TTL Signals need to be referenced from the output side. If the TTL pin is left floating the unit remains on. When multiple units are tied to a central switch command, a series resistor of 200 Ohms to each TTL pin is recommended to increase noise immunity. Remote Turn On / Off Remote Sense IN Remote sense pins, and have been provided on the SL Series converters for applications where precise load regulation is required at a distance from where the converter is physically located. If remote sensing is NOT required, these pins MUST be tied to their repective output pins ( to, to, see Figure 2). If one or more of these sense pins are not connected to their respective output pins, the output of the unit will not regulate to within specification and may cause high output voltage condition. Remote Sense - Single Output POINT OF VOLTAGE REGULATION Output Trim Figure 3 The output trim pin has been supplied on the SL family to provide output voltages other than the nominal fixed voltage. Output voltage can be increased or decreased (+10% Max, -10% Min) by simply connecting a resistor between the trim pin and the Output return pin or the +Output pin respectively (see Figure 4). TTL Basic Trim - Single Output Figure 2 DO NOT connect sense pins to any pin other than their respective output pins or permanent damage will occur. TRIM TRIM LO TRIM HI DO NOT connect sense pins to any load other than the same load the output pins are connected to or permanent damage may occur. Figure 4 2 www.eaton.com/powerconversion
Output Trim - con t The value of the resistors required to Trim Hi is shown in the Table 2. The external resistor is connected between the Trim Pin and the Output Return Pin at the power supply (use standard value 1% resistor closest to the table value). Trimming the output voltage too high may activate the over voltage protection circuitry. The value of resistor required to Trim Lo is shown in Table 2. The external resistor is connected between the Trim Pin and the +Output Pin at the power supply (use standard value 1% resistor closest to the table value). A potentiometer can be substituted for the resistor to achieve a more precise output voltage setting. When trimming up or down, the maximum output current and/or maximum output power cannot be exceeded. 110 108 106 104 102 100 98 96 94 92 90 Volts 3.63 3.56 3.50 3.43 3.37 3.30 3.23 3.17 3.10 3.04 2.97 3.3Vout KΩ 8.30 10.4 14.0 21.4 43.3 OPEN 115.3 57.1 37.5 27.4 21.4 Volts 5.50 5.40 5.30 5.20 5.10 5.00 4.90 4.80 4.70 4.60 4.50 5Vout KΩ 18.3 24.8 36.1 58.1 134.0 OPEN 106.9 48.9 28.4 18.3 12.2 12Vout Volts KΩ 13.20 92.6 12.96 117.1 12.72 158.1 12.48 241.7 12.24 504.6 12.00 OPEN 11.76 100.7 11.52 44.4 11.28 24.9 11.04 14.9 10.80 8.80 110 108 106 104 102 100 98 96 94 92 90 Volts 16.50 16.20 15.90 15.60 15.30 15.00 14.70 14.40 14.10 13.80 13.50 15Vout KΩ 122.9 153.9 205.1 309.9 616.8 OPEN 107.8 46.2 25.7 15.4 9.1 Volts 26.40 25.92 25.44 24.96 24.48 24.00 23.52 23.04 22.56 22.08 21.60 24Vout KΩ 224.0 278.6 369.8 554.9 1165 OPEN 103.7 44.7 24.6 14.4 8.3 28Vout Volts KΩ 30.80 268.6 30.24 331.8 29.68 435.9 29.12 650.6 25.56 1282 28.00 OPEN 27.44 110.6 26.88 49.5 26.32 28.9 25.76 18.6 25.20 12.4 Table 2 Military Specifications Specification MILTD-704D MILTD-810E MIL-901C Condition Input Transient Vibration Humidity Temperature/Altitude Acceleration Temperature Shock High Impact Shock Method 514.4 507.3 520.1 513.4 503.3 Procedure 1 1 3 3 Test Condition Transients up to 500V for 0.1 sec (270 input) Up to 30 gs, each axis for 1 hour 95% humidity, non condensing for 10 days 40 hours from -55 C to +71 C 14 gs each axis -55 C to + 100 C (non-operating, one hour each cycle) 5 foot hammer drop www.eaton.com/powerconversion 3
Series Operation Parallel Operation The SL500 family of power converters may be arranged in a series operating mode to supply higher output voltages when required (see Figure 5). In this configuration, D1 and D2 are added to protect against the application of a negative across the outputs of the power converters during power up and power down. The two (or more) units do not need to have the same output voltage, but the output current supplied in this configuration will be limited to the lowest maximum output current of the modules used. PAR PAR D1 Synchronization Figure 6 Parallel Operation Figure 5 The SL500 converter family has the capability of being paralleled to drive loads of higher power than a single SL500 unit can handle. The PAR pin is supplied on the unit for this function (see Figure 6). If parallel operation of two or more units is removed, the following precautions must be followed: Corresponding input and output leads or traces on each unit should be as equal in length and size as practical. The more equivalent the leads are, the closer the unit sharing. The PAR pins of all units should be tied together. The units do not have to be synchronized for parallel operation but may be if required (see Synchronization). Or ing diodes may be included in the positive output leads for true N + 1 redundant systems, but are not necessary. Local sensing should be used whenever possible to minimize noise on the and pins in parallel applications. D2 Synchronization of switch-mode converters to a central system clock frequency is often essential in noise sensitive systems. The SL Series can be tied to the central clock that is referenced to (see Figure 7) by inputting a square wave clock signal which has a frequency amplitude and duty cycle within specified limits. The SL Series converter s internal synchonization circuit is triggered by rising edge of this clock waveform. DO NOT add any capacitance from the SYNC pin line to Ground. Synchronization to External Clock PW Period IN External Clock Ripple & Noise TTL SYNC PAR TRIM Figure 7 Output ripple and noise (sometimes referred to as PARD or Periodic and Random Deviations ) can be defined as unwanted variations in the output voltage of a power supply. In switching power supplies, this output noise is seen as a series of pulses with a high frequency content and is therefore measured as a peak value (i.e., specified as peak-to-peak ). 4 www.eaton.com/powerconversion
Ripple & Noise - con t The SL Series of power supplies are specified and tested in our factory with a 20 MHz bandwidth oscilloscope / probe. Measurements taken by a scope set at higher frequencies (i.e. 300 MHz) may produce significantly different results due to noise coupling on to the probe from sources other than the power supply. Noise that is common to all output leads of a power converter with repect to the chassis is refered to as common mode noise. Noise that is apparent on one output lead with respect to the other output lead is referred to as differential mode noise. Common mode noise is produced in switching action. Martek Power, a brand of Cooper Bussmann, typically minimizes the level of output common mode noise by incorporating line to chassis ground capacitors (on input and output leads) into the power converters. In most cases, this is sufficient to minimize the level of common mode noise. However, if further attenuation is required, additional line to chassis ground capacitance may be added by the customer at the system level. Martek Power noise specifications (output ripple specifications) all reference the level of differential mode noise at a given bandwidth, not the level of common mode noise. The measurement of differential mode noise is detailed in the following paragraphs. Measurement Techniques The length of all measurement leads (especially the ground lead) should be minimized and the sense pins should be tied to their respective outputs (ENSE to PUT, - SENSE to - OUTPUT). One inch or less from the output terminals, place a ceramic capacitor of 1µF and a 22µF low ESR Tantalum capacitor. Using an X1 scope probe with a 20 MHz bandwidth, we recommend measurement close to the capacitors. We do not recommend using the probe ground clip. Instead, replace it with connecting a short bus wire (generally 0.5 inches or less, making a loop at the end to place the probe in) to the negative and positive outputs on the backside of the connector. Place the tip of the probe on the PUT, and the ground ring (or ground band) on the PUT for a true ripple measurement (see Figure 8). Utilizing the probe ground ring (as opposed to a ground clip) will minimize the chance of noise coupling from sources other than the power supply. Ripple Reduction Techniques In applications where the output ripple of the converter is higher than desired, various techniques can be employed to reduce output ripple and noise (PARD). One method is to add additional capacitance in parallel with the output leads of the converter (low ESR type tantalums or ceramic are recommended). This should substantially reduce PARD. See Table 3 for maximum allowable capacitance that may be added to the output leads.
